Working in Ballymena
We work right across Ballymena — BT42, BT43 and BT44 — and in neighbouring Antrim and Magherafelt.
In Ballymena, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. We measure Ballymena bathrooms wall by wall before ordering, so the run is made for your room. If your Ballymena home has uneven walls, fillers and end panels are scribed to them on site rather than left with gaps.
Most of County Antrim is supplied with soft water. In soft water, taps, wastes and toilet pans scale up slowly, so brushed and matt finishes are a safe choice. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Tall units fixed to the wall, doors adjusted and soft-close hinges set
- Removal of the old basin, WC or cabinets, with redundant supplies capped
- A concealed cistern or cistern frame, with an isolation valve you can reach through the flush plate or a panel
- Basin, tap and waste connected, and the WC pan fixed and joined to the soil pipe
Decisions to make first
Carcass board
Moisture-resistant board with sealed edges is the minimum. Some ranges use a PVC-based or similar carcass that copes better with splashes and leaks.
Unit depth
Slimline units are shallower and suit narrow rooms; standard-depth units hold more and give a wider worktop over the cistern.
Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, fitted furniture does not need building control approval. The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009 cover the WC and taps, and any wiring should follow BS 7671.
